    Might be worth picking up for the nostalgia. But I wouldn't pick it up expecting an amazing Ghostbusters experience. It's not bad, it's just annoying a lot. It's frequently irritating. And a lot of that is just the dated mechanics.

    If you are a Ghostbusters fan who never bought the original, this is the definitive version. it's a 10. BUY IT NOW! The best Ghostbusters gameIf you are a Ghostbusters fan who never bought the original, this is the definitive version. it's a 10. BUY IT NOW! The best Ghostbusters game ever. Which isn't saying much because the runners up are Ghostbusters 2 NES Pal version which was like a less fun Zombies ate my Neighbors, a Doom2 WAD, and a Pokemon go knockoff. Are you a non-fan who wants a 3rd person shooter with a fun lasso gimmick? meh 5/10.

    Did you buy it before? It's literally the exact same game with almost no noticeable increase in resolution. Also no Multiplayer (yet?). Seriously, co-op and multi should have been the bare minimum addition. If they add that and maybe a new map on it I'll jack up my score by 2 points. It's only been 10 years. A little early for a remaster. Not much differences in tech to take advantage of.

    I still love it though. Gonna 100% all the trophies just like last time. If you are a fan and you bought it once, only a superfan would buy it again. In which case add me when multiplayer comes out Thedarknerd69 on PSN. If you didn't buy it before? Buy it now! If you are a passing fan or a normie? Pass.

    Still a classic and it's what Ghostbusters 3 could have been. Still worth it after all these years. Can't wait for the multiplayer to be addedStill a classic and it's what Ghostbusters 3 could have been. Still worth it after all these years. Can't wait for the multiplayer to be added as I never tried that on the original release. Full Review »

    The characters are very funny and original GhostBusters are really in the center of the game, which is very good. But from the game mechanicsThe characters are very funny and original GhostBusters are really in the center of the game, which is very good. But from the game mechanics standpoint this game is a torture. Most of the time I just prayed that next fight scene won't be harder than the previous one. A lot of times when I died I didn't even realized who killed me. Full Review »
